0:00:22 > 0:00:23SOLDIERS MARCH
0:00:48 > 0:00:51I love you more than anything.
0:00:51 > 0:00:52I know.
0:00:53 > 0:00:55Gods be with you.
0:00:55 > 0:00:56And you.
0:01:20 > 0:01:22Aah!
0:01:22 > 0:01:24Don't be afraid.
0:01:24 > 0:01:27I mean you no harm.
0:01:27 > 0:01:28I have a message for you.
0:01:38 > 0:01:40Princess Ariadne.
0:01:40 > 0:01:41Run.
0:01:41 > 0:01:43Guards!
0:01:55 > 0:01:56There's nowhere left for you to run.
0:02:08 > 0:02:09ARROW STRIKES Argh!
0:02:48 > 0:02:49Do we know who this man is?
0:02:49 > 0:02:51He has yet to regain consciousness.
0:02:51 > 0:02:54I thought Princess Ariadne might be able to tell us more.
0:02:56 > 0:02:57Ariadne.
0:02:57 > 0:02:59Did you recognise the man who attacked you?
0:02:59 > 0:03:02I'd never seen him before.
0:03:02 > 0:03:03What became of him? Did he escape?
0:03:03 > 0:03:05He was wounded by one of the archers.
0:03:07 > 0:03:09Did this man say anything to you?
0:03:09 > 0:03:14He demanded my jewellery and said he would hurt me if I did not comply.
0:03:14 > 0:03:15Mm.
0:03:16 > 0:03:17He said nothing else?
0:03:18 > 0:03:21I'm not inclined to converse with thieves.
0:03:21 > 0:03:23SHE CHUCKLES
0:03:23 > 0:03:25Must have been a terrible shock for you. You look pale.
0:03:25 > 0:03:26You should get some sleep.
0:03:26 > 0:03:29Would you please escort Ariadne to her chambers?
0:03:35 > 0:03:36Do you believe her?
0:03:36 > 0:03:39Why would a thief attempt to steal from the king's daughter?
0:03:39 > 0:03:41There are far easier pickings in the city.
0:03:41 > 0:03:43No...
0:03:43 > 0:03:45Ariadne seemed more concerned for the man's fate
0:03:45 > 0:03:48than for her own safety.
0:03:48 > 0:03:49Then what did this man want with her?
0:03:51 > 0:03:54We shall have to persuade him to tell us.
0:03:57 > 0:03:59Do not fail me, my friend.
0:04:00 > 0:04:02Excuse me, sorry, sorry...
0:04:02 > 0:04:04HE CHUCKLES
0:04:08 > 0:04:09I can't believe you talked us
0:04:09 > 0:04:12into betting what little money we have on a beetle.
0:04:12 > 0:04:14Hercules told me his beetle has never lost a race.
0:04:14 > 0:04:17That's true. Never actually been in a race, though, has it?
0:04:17 > 0:04:21That is also true, but I swear to you, it's as swift as an eagle.
0:04:21 > 0:04:24An eagle? Really?
0:04:24 > 0:04:26Well, maybe not that swift, but it's swift for a beetle.
0:04:26 > 0:04:28We have to get our money back.
0:04:28 > 0:04:29Well, it's not all our money.
0:04:29 > 0:04:32I have some gold coins hidden under the floorboards in my chamber.
0:04:32 > 0:04:35You HAD some gold coins under the floorboards in your chamber.
0:04:35 > 0:04:38I have gambled them on your behalf.
0:04:38 > 0:04:40KNOCKING Ooh...
0:04:40 > 0:04:41Ahem.
0:04:41 > 0:04:44ALL SHOUT ENCOURAGEMENT
0:04:48 > 0:04:50Go on! Go on, run!
0:04:50 > 0:04:51Run faster!
0:04:51 > 0:04:53Run faster, faster.
0:04:53 > 0:04:56I will squash you like a fly. Go!
0:04:56 > 0:04:57Go!
0:04:57 > 0:04:59ALL SHOUT
0:05:02 > 0:05:03Yes!
0:05:03 > 0:05:05We did it!
0:05:05 > 0:05:08We're rich! We did it!
0:05:08 > 0:05:10DOOR CLANGS
0:05:16 > 0:05:19What is it you want with the princess Ariadne?
0:05:19 > 0:05:21I meant to rob her.
0:05:21 > 0:05:22Hm.
0:05:25 > 0:05:27I don't believe you.
0:05:29 > 0:05:31I can give you jewels.
0:05:31 > 0:05:33All you ever dreamed of.
0:05:35 > 0:05:36But you must tell me the truth.
0:05:39 > 0:05:41I can give you jewels...
0:05:44 > 0:05:46..or pain. That is all.
0:05:46 > 0:05:49What is it you want with Ariadne?
0:05:51 > 0:05:52I meant to rob her.
0:05:54 > 0:05:56Then you have made your choice.
0:06:05 > 0:06:07Fetch me when he's ready to talk.
0:06:10 > 0:06:11Argh!
0:06:16 > 0:06:19Is there something troubling you, Ariadne?
0:06:19 > 0:06:22I'm told the intruder was caught, he cannot harm you.
0:06:23 > 0:06:24He meant me no harm.
0:06:27 > 0:06:29There is something I must ask of you.
0:06:31 > 0:06:34I would not do so if it were not important.
0:06:38 > 0:06:42What in earth are you doing? I'm fetching breakfast.
0:06:42 > 0:06:44I've seen him eat worse when he's drunk.
0:06:44 > 0:06:46Not for me, you fool, it's for Astrabacus.
0:06:46 > 0:06:49Who's Astrabacus? It's the name I've given to my beetle.
0:06:49 > 0:06:50You've named him?
0:06:50 > 0:06:53After his victory last night, it's no less than he deserves.
0:06:53 > 0:06:56Astrabacus? You don't think that's a little grand?
0:06:56 > 0:06:57For a dung beetle?
0:06:57 > 0:06:58You may mock all you like,
0:06:58 > 0:07:02but Astrabacus is the most valuable possession we have.
0:07:02 > 0:07:03That is truly depressing.
0:07:08 > 0:07:09Korinna!
0:07:09 > 0:07:11What are you doing here?
0:07:11 > 0:07:13I was hoping I might speak with you.
0:07:13 > 0:07:14Alone.
0:07:17 > 0:07:19I've received word that the man I love
0:07:19 > 0:07:21is at the ruined palace at Synas.
0:07:21 > 0:07:23I must journey there if I am to see him.
0:07:25 > 0:07:26Why can't he come to Atlantis?
0:07:26 > 0:07:29He was accused of a crime he didn't commit
0:07:29 > 0:07:31and forced to flee the city.
0:07:31 > 0:07:33If he returns, he faces imprisonment.
0:07:35 > 0:07:37The mountains are full of robbers
0:07:37 > 0:07:39and it isn't safe for me to travel alone.
0:07:39 > 0:07:44But if I don't go, he will think I have forsaken him.
0:07:44 > 0:07:45So you want me to escort you?
0:07:45 > 0:07:47I wouldn't ask if there were any other way.
0:07:49 > 0:07:51It's been many months since I've seen him.
0:07:51 > 0:07:53Then I'll take you to him. Thank you.
0:08:02 > 0:08:04For whom do you make an offering?
0:08:06 > 0:08:09I ask the gods to look favourably upon all those I care for.
0:08:13 > 0:08:15The intruder from last night...
0:08:17 > 0:08:19It would seem that robbery was not his true purpose.
0:08:21 > 0:08:23He told you this himself? Not yet.
0:08:23 > 0:08:25But he shall talk, soon enough.
0:08:26 > 0:08:28I will leave you to your prayers.
0:08:36 > 0:08:37Uh...what are you doing?
0:08:37 > 0:08:40I'm giving Astrabacus some mountain air.
0:08:40 > 0:08:41It will make him strong.
0:08:41 > 0:08:44You brought him with you? Where I go, he goes.
0:08:44 > 0:08:47If I didn't know better, I'd say you were in love.
0:08:47 > 0:08:49I heard you were in love with Medusa.
0:08:49 > 0:08:51Has she said something? Does she speak of me often?
0:08:51 > 0:08:55No. Pythagoras told me. Did I?
0:08:55 > 0:08:56It may have slipped out.
0:08:56 > 0:09:00You'll have to console yourself with the love of your dung beetle.
0:09:00 > 0:09:02He's a better friend to me than you.
0:09:05 > 0:09:07PASIPHAE: I admire your courage.
0:09:09 > 0:09:11Lesser men would have broken by now.
0:09:13 > 0:09:15I have told you all I know.
0:09:15 > 0:09:16We shall see.
0:09:16 > 0:09:19HE PANTS IN PAIN
0:09:24 > 0:09:26HISSING SOUND
0:09:26 > 0:09:29SHE CHANTS
0:09:29 > 0:09:31Please...!
0:09:31 > 0:09:32No more!
0:09:34 > 0:09:37Tell me what it is you wish to know and I will end your pain.
0:09:38 > 0:09:40What is it you want with Ariadne?
0:09:40 > 0:09:41Argh!
0:09:41 > 0:09:44I...I was...to...
0:09:44 > 0:09:46I was to deliver a message.
0:09:48 > 0:09:49A message?
0:09:51 > 0:09:53Who was it from?
0:09:54 > 0:09:58It was...from...her brother.
0:10:05 > 0:10:07(He's dead.)
0:10:07 > 0:10:09The prince lives. He is here? In Atlantis?
0:10:09 > 0:10:11He waits for her at Synas.
0:10:17 > 0:10:19You promised...to end my pain.
0:10:23 > 0:10:24And I will.
0:10:24 > 0:10:25BLADE RINGS
0:10:25 > 0:10:27Argh!
0:10:34 > 0:10:36THE ORACLE CHANTS
0:11:01 > 0:11:04You told me Therus was dead.
0:11:04 > 0:11:06How is it I've just learned that he lives?
0:11:08 > 0:11:10I did not say the prince was dead.
0:11:11 > 0:11:14I said he was lost at sea. You deliberately misled me!
0:11:16 > 0:11:19The images I see are not always clear.
0:11:21 > 0:11:23You must interpret them as you can.
0:11:28 > 0:11:31And what else have you told me that I can no longer trust?
0:11:31 > 0:11:34I speak the truth when I tell you now
0:11:34 > 0:11:38that your hunger for power will lead to bloodshed and suffering.
0:11:40 > 0:11:42PASIPHAE LAUGHS
0:11:42 > 0:11:46And you think you can stop me? With your lies and deceit?
0:11:48 > 0:11:50It is not I who will stop you.
0:11:57 > 0:12:00And what about your own future? Hm?
0:12:02 > 0:12:04What do you see for yourself?
0:12:08 > 0:12:11The gods will not allow me to see my own destiny.
0:12:11 > 0:12:13Then do not make the mistake
0:12:13 > 0:12:17of thinking that you are...untouchable.
0:12:20 > 0:12:24Mislead me again, and I shall determine your fate for you.
0:12:36 > 0:12:38How can that be? You told me Therus was dead.
0:12:38 > 0:12:39I believed it to be true.
0:12:39 > 0:12:42If Ariadne were to learn the true reason he fled Atlantis...
0:12:42 > 0:12:44We cannot allow that to happen.
0:12:44 > 0:12:47Take a squad of soldiers to Synas. Kill Therus. Burn his body.
0:12:49 > 0:12:51He is the king's son.
0:12:51 > 0:12:54Do you think Ariadne will accept your hand in marriage
0:12:54 > 0:12:55if she learns the truth?
0:12:55 > 0:12:57If you wish to take the throne, you will do as I say.
0:13:00 > 0:13:02They've been attacked by thieves.
0:13:07 > 0:13:09Shouldn't we at least bury the bodies?
0:13:09 > 0:13:11Mountain paths are littered with corpses.
0:13:12 > 0:13:14We can't bury them all.
0:13:30 > 0:13:32My lord, if I'm to give orders to my men,
0:13:32 > 0:13:34I must know the nature of my mission.
0:13:34 > 0:13:36It seems the intruder was part of a plot to kidnap Ariadne.
0:13:36 > 0:13:39The other conspirators are hiding out at Synas.
0:13:39 > 0:13:40Your men are to take no prisoners.
0:13:54 > 0:13:56Do not fear, Ariadne.
0:13:56 > 0:13:58We've learned why the intruder was in the palace.
0:13:58 > 0:13:59And why was that?
0:14:01 > 0:14:03He was sent by your brother.
0:14:03 > 0:14:06It seems the traitor has returned.
0:14:06 > 0:14:07I do not believe he is a traitor.
0:14:07 > 0:14:09It's been hard for all of us to accept his betrayal -
0:14:09 > 0:14:10you more than anyone.
0:14:12 > 0:14:15Fortunately, the intruder has told us where Therus is hiding.
0:14:15 > 0:14:17Heptarian rides to Synas as we speak.
0:14:19 > 0:14:23What will Heptarian do if he finds Therus? Ah, now...
0:14:23 > 0:14:27No - it's best not to think about it.
0:14:27 > 0:14:29You've been through quite an ordeal.
0:14:31 > 0:14:32Therus will soon be dead.
0:14:34 > 0:14:35This will all be over.
0:15:03 > 0:15:05I will continue alone. Are you sure it's safe?
0:15:26 > 0:15:27MUFFLED SCREAM
0:15:27 > 0:15:29You cry out, it'll be the last thing you do.
0:15:31 > 0:15:33Who are you? I bring word from your sister.
0:15:39 > 0:15:41What are they doing in there?
0:15:41 > 0:15:44Really, Pythagoras? Do I have to explain with diagrams?
0:15:47 > 0:15:49They will not thank us for interrupting them...
0:15:55 > 0:15:57You can trust them, they're my friends.
0:15:57 > 0:15:58I'm ready to return to Atlantis.
0:16:00 > 0:16:02Really? That was quick.
0:16:02 > 0:16:03The light's fading.
0:16:04 > 0:16:06The mountain paths are too dangerous in the dark.
0:16:06 > 0:16:08We should make camp for the night.
0:16:13 > 0:16:15Ariadne.
0:16:15 > 0:16:16What is it?
0:16:17 > 0:16:20It's nothing. I was just taking some air.
0:16:20 > 0:16:21What troubles you?
0:16:25 > 0:16:27I was thinking of Therus.
0:16:29 > 0:16:32There isn't a day that passes when he does not enter my thoughts.
0:16:32 > 0:16:34When I learned of his betrayal...
0:16:37 > 0:16:40There is no greater sadness. Therus loved and respected you.
0:16:40 > 0:16:41I cannot believe he meant you any harm.
0:16:41 > 0:16:43Those he plotted with confessed -
0:16:43 > 0:16:45why would he flee the city if it were not true?
0:16:55 > 0:16:57With Therus gone,
0:16:57 > 0:16:59you are more precious to me than ever.
0:17:05 > 0:17:07I do not say it often enough.
0:17:15 > 0:17:19BLADE RINGS
0:17:21 > 0:17:24Hm... What is it?
0:17:24 > 0:17:25I don't believe they've ever been lovers.
0:17:25 > 0:17:28They've barely said two words to each other.
0:17:30 > 0:17:31Why would Korinna lie to us?
0:17:33 > 0:17:35I don't know. We should be on our guard.
0:17:52 > 0:17:53HERCULES SNORTS
0:17:53 > 0:17:55Shh! Soldiers.
0:17:59 > 0:18:01Astrabacus!
0:18:01 > 0:18:02Hercules, no!
0:18:05 > 0:18:06Oh! Praise the gods!
0:18:09 > 0:18:10Ugh!
0:18:10 > 0:18:13SWORDS CLASH
0:18:13 > 0:18:14You would risk your life for a beetle?
0:18:14 > 0:18:16He's like family to me.
0:18:18 > 0:18:19Go!
0:18:31 > 0:18:34What are soldiers from Atlantis doing out here in the middle of the night?
0:18:34 > 0:18:36They're here for you, aren't they?
0:18:38 > 0:18:41For what crime did you flee the city?
0:18:41 > 0:18:44I was accused of plotting to kill my father...the king.
0:18:46 > 0:18:48You're Prince Therus? The king's son?
0:18:49 > 0:18:51I know a hunting lodge in the mountains.
0:18:51 > 0:18:52We'll be safe there.
0:18:56 > 0:19:00Great - now we're traitors.
0:19:00 > 0:19:02You know what they do to traitors...
0:19:02 > 0:19:04I have a pretty good idea.
0:19:04 > 0:19:05You mean to tell me he escaped?
0:19:05 > 0:19:07I have scouts searching the mountains.
0:19:07 > 0:19:08He will not get far.
0:19:13 > 0:19:14No.
0:19:15 > 0:19:18No, what Therus seeks is not to be found in the mountains.
0:19:18 > 0:19:20It is here...
0:19:20 > 0:19:21In Atlantis.
0:19:23 > 0:19:25Ariadne? She will not be able to resist
0:19:25 > 0:19:26the thought of seeing her brother.
0:19:26 > 0:19:29She will lead us to him.
0:19:40 > 0:19:42Astrabacus needs to build up his strength.
0:19:42 > 0:19:44Breakfast - most important meal of the day.
0:19:46 > 0:19:49Where are you going? I must go to Ariadne myself.
0:19:49 > 0:19:51It's too dangerous for you to enter the city.
0:19:51 > 0:19:53They'll be searching for you. It's the only way.
0:19:55 > 0:19:57We'll bring your sister to you.
0:19:57 > 0:20:01Are you completely out of your mind?
0:20:01 > 0:20:03You intend to smuggle the princess Ariadne
0:20:03 > 0:20:06out of Atlantis, under the nose of the queen
0:20:06 > 0:20:07and the entire garrison?
0:20:07 > 0:20:08Yes.
0:20:09 > 0:20:14You would do this for me? I would do it for your sister.
0:20:15 > 0:20:18Surely after all that has happened, Ariadne will be under guard.
0:20:18 > 0:20:22You won't be able to get to her. I won't. Corrina will.
0:20:25 > 0:20:28Wait at the servants' entrance above the Northern Gate.
0:20:28 > 0:20:29I'll send Ariadne to you.
0:20:50 > 0:20:53Corrina. I was so worried for you, I feared you'd been caught.
0:20:54 > 0:20:58Therus, is he alive? Your brother is safe, he's in the mountains.
0:20:58 > 0:21:00I must go to him.
0:21:00 > 0:21:02I believe that's what's expected of you.
0:21:02 > 0:21:04You're being watched.
0:21:17 > 0:21:19Out of my way!
0:21:32 > 0:21:34Lord Heptarian.
0:21:43 > 0:21:44Will you help me find my brother?
0:21:48 > 0:21:51Your Highness.
0:21:51 > 0:21:54Ariadne is missing. We fear she may have been abducted.
0:21:54 > 0:21:58Seal the city. She cannot be allowed to leave, I want her found.
0:21:58 > 0:21:59I will see to it.
0:22:03 > 0:22:05Ariadne must not reach her brother.
0:22:05 > 0:22:07She cannot be allowed to learn the truth.
0:22:21 > 0:22:23Is there something troubling you?
0:22:25 > 0:22:26What is it?
0:22:28 > 0:22:31You could have told me the truth about your brother.
0:22:31 > 0:22:33I would have gladly helped you.
0:22:33 > 0:22:36You asked me and my friends to risk our lives on a lie.
0:22:36 > 0:22:39I'm sorry, I shouldn't have done that.
0:22:41 > 0:22:44It's difficult for me to know who I can trust.
0:22:44 > 0:22:46You can trust me, Ariadne.
0:22:47 > 0:22:50BELLS TOLL IN DISTANCE
0:22:50 > 0:22:54They've discovered I'm missing. We need to get off the streets.

0:23:07 > 0:23:09Yes. For now.
0:23:13 > 0:23:17You should change your clothes if we're to escape the city.
0:23:25 > 0:23:27Here.
0:23:28 > 0:23:30Oh, you can change in there.

0:24:45 > 0:24:48You keep horse dung in jars? No!
0:24:48 > 0:24:52Well, yes, but it's not mine, it belongs to Hercules.
0:24:52 > 0:24:53For his pet beetle.
0:24:53 > 0:24:56He has a beetle for a pet? Yes.
0:24:56 > 0:25:01Hercules is a man of many strange and disgusting habits.
0:25:10 > 0:25:12How do I look?
0:25:12 > 0:25:13You look...
0:25:15 > 0:25:18Well, you don't look like a princess.
0:25:20 > 0:25:21Good.
0:25:22 > 0:25:24You've tidied up.
0:25:24 > 0:25:27No. I mean... Not really.
0:25:27 > 0:25:31I was looking for something, a bowl. Which I found.
0:25:31 > 0:25:36Er... It's not for now, it's for another time.
0:25:36 > 0:25:38We should go.
0:25:40 > 0:25:41Erm...
0:25:49 > 0:25:50Yeah.
0:25:58 > 0:26:00Have they found her?
0:26:00 > 0:26:04No. The city is sealed, the search continues.
0:26:04 > 0:26:06I've already lost one child, I cannot bear to lose another.
0:26:06 > 0:26:08You did not lose Therus, he betrayed you.
0:26:12 > 0:26:15We must pray to the Gods that Ariadne is found.
0:26:15 > 0:26:19The Gods punish me for taking the throne.
0:26:20 > 0:26:22For all that we did to seize power.
0:26:22 > 0:26:24This is not the work of the gods, it is the work of men
0:26:24 > 0:26:26and they will be caught.
0:26:26 > 0:26:27They will be executed.
0:26:27 > 0:26:31I always thought that I desired the throne more than anything.
0:26:31 > 0:26:35Perhaps... I have paid a price that is too high.
0:26:37 > 0:26:39You cannot truly believe that.
0:26:39 > 0:26:41I'm no longer certain what I believe.
0:26:43 > 0:26:47Be certain of this. If you show weakness, our enemies will strike,
0:26:47 > 0:26:51and you will lose everything including... your beloved daughter.
0:26:54 > 0:26:55Run. That's it.
0:26:55 > 0:27:00Run, run like the wind!
0:27:00 > 0:27:02HE CHUCKLES
0:27:02 > 0:27:07Yeah, he has the legs of a gazelle and the heart of a lion.

0:27:23 > 0:27:26You seem to be getting very attached.
0:27:26 > 0:27:28I fear beetles only live a short time.
0:27:30 > 0:27:33Then our time together will be even more precious.

0:27:53 > 0:27:55We'll never make it past the guards.

0:28:29 > 0:28:31Come with me.

0:29:03 > 0:29:05Jason should have returned by now.
0:29:05 > 0:29:09I'm sure he's fine, you should eat something. I have no appetite.
0:29:09 > 0:29:11Where's Therus?
0:29:11 > 0:29:13WITH MOUTH FULL: He's fetching some water.
0:29:13 > 0:29:16I have no idea what you're saying.
0:29:16 > 0:29:18I said, he's fetching some water.
0:29:18 > 0:29:21You're making me anxious with all this pacing around. Sit, eat.
0:29:25 > 0:29:26Eat what?
0:29:36 > 0:29:38A moment ago, you said you had no appetite.
0:29:38 > 0:29:40HORSE WHINNIES OUTSIDE What was that?
0:29:40 > 0:29:42Oh, look what you've done, you clumsy idiot!
0:29:44 > 0:29:46That's Extrapicus. He's gone.
0:29:46 > 0:29:48Well, he can't have gone far.
0:29:48 > 0:29:50Extrapicus.
0:29:50 > 0:29:52You do realise he's a beetle and he can't understand you?
0:29:52 > 0:29:54Just help me find him.
0:29:54 > 0:29:57Extrapicus. SQUASHING SOUND
0:29:59 > 0:30:01Oh, no. What was it?
0:30:01 > 0:30:06I... I think I may have just... trodden on Extrapicus.

0:30:18 > 0:30:19Don't crush him. I'm not crushing him.
0:30:19 > 0:30:21You're crushing him! I'm not.

0:30:31 > 0:30:33Hey... It's his pet beetle.
0:31:20 > 0:31:22I did not dare to believe it was really you.
0:31:22 > 0:31:24You've grown up.
0:31:24 > 0:31:27You were just a little girl when I last saw you.
0:31:27 > 0:31:29It's been over ten years, Therus.
0:31:29 > 0:31:31I know.
0:31:31 > 0:31:33I'm sorry.
0:31:37 > 0:31:41I cannot tell you how good it is to look upon you with my own eyes.
0:31:43 > 0:31:44My little sister.
0:31:48 > 0:31:49Thank you for bringing her to me.
0:31:49 > 0:31:51Perhaps you could give us some time alone.
0:32:02 > 0:32:04You must be thirsty after your journey.
0:32:06 > 0:32:07Thank you.
0:32:15 > 0:32:16Why did you leave?
0:32:17 > 0:32:20I do not believe that you conspired to kill our father.
0:32:20 > 0:32:22Say it isn't so.
0:32:27 > 0:32:29Just before I came of age, I uncovered a plot.
0:32:30 > 0:32:32I was to be killed.
0:32:33 > 0:32:35It was Pasiphae.
0:32:35 > 0:32:36She was behind it.
0:32:38 > 0:32:40When I learned the truth,
0:32:40 > 0:32:42she knew I would tell the king.
0:32:42 > 0:32:44There was no plot to kill him.
0:32:44 > 0:32:46Pasiphae created it to discredit me.
0:32:46 > 0:32:48She knew I'd have no choice but to flee.
0:32:48 > 0:32:51What of the men who confessed to plotting with you?
0:32:51 > 0:32:53Pasiphae threatened to murder their families
0:32:53 > 0:32:55if they didn't say I was a traitor. Those men were innocent.
0:32:55 > 0:32:58Pasiphae had them executed to protect herself.
0:32:58 > 0:32:59I always knew she desired the throne.
0:33:01 > 0:33:03I did not know she'd go to such lengths.
0:33:03 > 0:33:05She'll do anything to seize power.
0:33:06 > 0:33:10She will kill anyone who stands between her and the throne.
0:33:10 > 0:33:11All those years ago, it was me.
0:33:14 > 0:33:16But now that person is you.
0:33:16 > 0:33:18You come of age soon.
0:33:19 > 0:33:22You will become heir to the throne.
0:33:22 > 0:33:24Your life is in danger.
0:33:24 > 0:33:27Our father would never let any harm come to me.
0:33:27 > 0:33:30As much as you love him, he is no match for Pasiphae.
0:33:31 > 0:33:34He can no more protect you than he was able to protect me.
0:33:34 > 0:33:37You must come away with me and never return to Atlantis.
0:33:37 > 0:33:38I can't do that.
0:33:40 > 0:33:41I will not leave Atlantis.
0:33:41 > 0:33:43I feared you would say that.
0:33:52 > 0:33:53Forgive me, sister.
0:34:00 > 0:34:03Jason, we were worried about you. At least, I was.
0:34:03 > 0:34:06I had more important things to worry about.
0:34:06 > 0:34:08Pythagoras nearly stood on Astrabacus.
0:34:08 > 0:34:10I didn't nearly stand on Astrabacus, it was a spider.
0:34:10 > 0:34:14Princess Ariadne with you? She's inside with Therus.
0:34:14 > 0:34:18Do we have any food? I'm starving. Prince Therus ate all the bread.
0:34:18 > 0:34:21That's royalty for you. They don't think about anyone but themselves.
0:34:36 > 0:34:38What is it?
0:34:38 > 0:34:41It's belladonna. A powerful sedative.
0:34:41 > 0:34:42HORSE NEIGHS OUTSIDE
0:34:42 > 0:34:44Why would Therus drug his own sister?

0:35:29 > 0:35:31Why are you doing this?
0:35:31 > 0:35:33Ariadne's life is in danger. I have to take her away.
0:35:37 > 0:35:40If you will drug her, she has no say in the matter.
0:35:40 > 0:35:43I have to protect her. If you care for her at all, you will let us go.
0:35:49 > 0:35:51I care for your sister more than anything.
0:35:51 > 0:35:53I will not let you take her against her will.
0:35:59 > 0:36:01Then I have no choice but to kill you.
0:36:01 > 0:36:03I would gladly give my life for her.
0:36:03 > 0:36:05I must do this. I'm sorry.
0:36:05 > 0:36:06No!
0:36:10 > 0:36:13Therus, I cannot go with you.
0:36:13 > 0:36:15I will not leave the people to the mercy of Pasiphae.
0:36:15 > 0:36:17It is my duty to stay in Atlantis.
0:36:17 > 0:36:19You'll be of no help to the people if you are dead.
0:36:19 > 0:36:21If it means abandoning the city
0:36:21 > 0:36:23and turning my back on those I care for...
0:36:26 > 0:36:27..then I would rather be dead.
0:36:31 > 0:36:32Lower your sword.
0:36:38 > 0:36:39Please.
0:36:51 > 0:36:52You must go.
0:36:53 > 0:36:54And I must stay.
0:37:17 > 0:37:20I hope someday, I might be able to return.
0:37:20 > 0:37:23I wish for that more than anything.
0:37:23 > 0:37:25I will send word when I can.
0:37:27 > 0:37:29Is he a part of the reason you stay in Atlantis?
0:37:34 > 0:37:36As I said...
0:37:36 > 0:37:38..there are many people I care for.
0:37:55 > 0:37:58Farewell, little sister.
0:38:03 > 0:38:04Farewell.
0:38:29 > 0:38:31I cannot thank you enough for everything you've done.
0:38:35 > 0:38:37I must go.

0:38:51 > 0:38:55In the forest when Therus had his sword to me...
0:38:55 > 0:38:58..how much of what I said did you hear? Very little.
0:39:00 > 0:39:01I was still a little drowsy.
0:39:03 > 0:39:05What did you say?
0:39:05 > 0:39:08Nothing, really.
0:39:08 > 0:39:10No, I was just curious.
0:39:42 > 0:39:44Ariadne.
0:39:46 > 0:39:47Where have you been?
0:39:47 > 0:39:50The entire garrison has been searching for you.
0:39:50 > 0:39:53If they thought to look for me in the temple, they would have found me
0:39:53 > 0:39:56consulting with the oracle. I'm sorry if I've caused you concern.
0:39:56 > 0:39:59And what did the oracle tell you of your future?
0:40:01 > 0:40:03She warned me that I must be careful.
0:40:04 > 0:40:06It seems there are those who plot against me.
0:40:09 > 0:40:12Do you really expect me to believe that you were with the oracle?

0:41:35 > 0:41:37but an entirely different beetle? You think of that now?
0:41:37 > 0:41:39Well, all beetles are alike.
